RESPCD
RESPCD activities are developed in two ISD units, in Macaíba (RN): the Anita Garibaldi Health Education and Research Center (Anita) and the Edmond and Lily Safra International Institute of Neuroscience (IIN-ELS), from the Specialized Center for ISD Rehabilitation (CER ISD). Daily, the ISD offers chartered transport, which runs between the municipalities of Natal and Macaíba.
The Ministry of Health recognizes the ISD as a Specialized Rehabilitation Center IV, which encompasses rehabilitation in the auditory, physical, intellectual and visual areas. From the ISD CER, several lines of care operate, with which residents will have direct contact, such as: Parkinson's Disease; Spinal Cord Injury (Adult and Child-Adolescent); Microcephaly; Prematurity; Neurodevelopment; Neurogenic Bladder; Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD); Drug-Resistant Epilepsy; Hearing Health; Visual Health and Parasports.
The ISD Residency Program combines the areas of teaching, research and extension, with a focus on strengthening the Care Network for People with Disabilities in the context of the Unified Health System (SUS). In addition to access to the work environment of the ISD lines of care, the resident will have the opportunity to get in touch with the activities and research projects developed in the Postgraduate Program in Neuroengineering at IIN-ELS.
